The meeting took place in a cordial environment with detailed discussions. SKM leaders said they would place the matter before their general body for discussion.

The KMM criticised CM Bhagwant Mann for allegedly failing to take floods seriously. Farmers across the state have suffered massive losses, yet the government has failed to respond effectively. The government should provide Rs 70,000 per acre compensation to affected farmers and Rs 7,000 to agricultural labourers.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
